Unit 6 Audience Response Research Paper

Today, Film and Television are among the most internationally supported commodities. Financially, their contributions are enormous: both industries are responsible for the circulation of billions of dollars each year. Since their respective explosions into the new media markets during the mid-twentieth century, film and television have produced consistently growing numbers of viewers and critics alike. Sparking debate over the nature of their viewing, film and television are now being questioned in social, political, and moral arenas for their potential impact on an audience. Critics claim that watching films or television is a passive activity in which the viewer becomes subconsciously

Media is everywhere, it became a part of our life. We are exposed to thousands of ad messages every day and it's hard to imagine how it would feel to live without them constantly surrounding us. Today we see ads in print publications, TV commercials, emails, on different products, massively scattered in sport venues, and it’s even spreading into public spaces. In his documentary, Morgan Spurlock delivered a fascinating satire of the process of placing products into movies and tried to delve into the nature of advertising in our society.

Whenever giving a presentation it is important to properly communicate with your audience. In order for a presentation to be affective, the speaker must know who they are presenting to in order to inform, persuade, or entertain them.

You never want to go into a situation unaware of who your audience is in order to keep them interested.

The contestants are constantly trying to meet this ideal look that is painted into their mind by what the judges are looking for which is causing many unhealthy problems. Their parents, coaches, judges, and also themselves are pushing too hard on something that can't come true because it's almost impossible to meet. “There are unrealistic expectations to be perfect. They strive to be flawless, and they take that too far” says Charlotte Triggs, the author of "Toddlers & Tiaras TOO MUCH TOO SOON?". Basically, what the girls are doing to try to meet this goal to win the highest prize is ridiculous and is going to follow them throughout their adulthood.

I examined the document Does TV Help Make Americans Passive and Accepting of Authority? Throughout the essay the author was arguing that by watching television we as a society are becoming more isolated and passive. The purpose of my analysis is to convey how effective I feel the author did in stating and persuading the audience on this subject.

The findings of the survey responses can relate back to the literature review on how my data has shown that male drivers tend to get stopped more frequently that female drivers, just like other research that has been done. Police just consider males to be more suspicious than females from what many studies have shown. As well has non-whites and younger drivers are more likely to be stopped by police. Back to literature reviewed, many research that has been done have shown Blacks or any other non-white race would most likely be targeted by police. With age, police officers tend to suspect young drivers of crimes such as underage drinking, or drug related crimes. With the data collected of such a small, yet decent amount of respondents, sample has shown what much other research has shown about the relationship between gender, age, and race that do play a significant role in who the police decide to stop.

Five years ago, I was working for a pool company while attending graduate school majoring in educational administration. During this time, I met several different people on a day to day basis. One person that stuck out in my mind was Mr. Mark Freeman. I observed him as he would bring his family to the pool throughout the week in the later afternoon’s. He was always professional, kind, and respectful in everything he went about doing. He soon began chatting with me daily and I later found out he was the principal of the El Campo Middle School.

In today’s high-tech environment, we are losing our listening ability. We utilize recording via audio or video, which hinders the opportunity of listening to what the environment is trying to teach you. Society today is losing the art of gathering information via our ears. Our sense of hearing is one of our most important senses in information gathering and comprehension.

The reason I chose this topic was because I always wanted to further my understanding on the important effect TV could have. The questions I will be investigating are: How do complicated issues like race affect Television and how does Television affect society with their

Those who do not appropriate the reflection of sexiness and youth will be a social outcast. Specifically, the show targets a lot of these women to feel disgusted with how they look. Reality shows like these want our society to feel an unending burn and desire to be more beautiful at the cost of our own character. Reality shows want us to fuel their personal agenda, so we can continue to buy into beautifying products, such as anti-aging lotions, too-good-to-be-true products, to eventually cosmetic surgery. Consequently, women will reflect the character and image Sheila portrays. Society wants to be pretty, but a lot of them will never get “there” because media and television pressures us to always do more and more to improve our physical
